This COULD have something to do with it.

Report: Obama Administration Added $9.5 Billion in Red Tape in July
Conservatives take aim at job-killing regulations

By Paul Bedard

Posted: August 3, 2011

Many House and Senate conservatives are reviving their battle against federal regulations, claiming that the president hasn't stopped issuing job-killing rules during the debt ceiling fight. "While Washington and Americans have been focused on the debt ceiling, the Obama administration has continued to roll out more crushing red tape," said a spokesperson for Wyoming Republican Sen. John Barrasso, who's been championing the regulation fight.

........proposing 229 new rules and finalizing 379 rules.

Wife got notice she was being down graded to part time (24 - 30 hours a week) and losing her manager premium.

Sorry to hear that. Trouble is it's all too common, and I think most are just being let go.

Yes, we are thankful for that, but I don't see the job lasting past the first of the year.

How long did she have the job before being downgraded, and how long with the company?

She was hired as a manager, has worked there 3 years.

The store is doing alright, but the rest of the company isn't.

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

I received a 25% cut in pay this week. Just don't see this economic boom they keep saying we are having.
